Hello,

Paul Traina warned:

thanks for the advice, but I was hoping to delay this until 2.2R
came out (in two months, supposedly).  The security holes that
I know about, and did something about are:

	mount_union, mount_msdos, man...

	suidperl

	iijppp

	rdist...

Aside from this new libc thing, you're telling me that there are
others as well?  Is there an easy way to fix the libc problem
while I wait for 2.2R?

thanks,

tom
